Rain Sensor Electronic

1. Notes on these Operating Instructions

Translation of the original instructions from German.

Please read these operating instructions carefully and observe the

notes given. Use these operating instructions to familiarise yourself with

the Rain Sensor, the unit’s features and proper use as well as with the

notes on safety.

For safety reasons, children and young people under 16

as well as anyone who is not familiar with these operating

instructions may not use the Rain Sensor. The Rain Sensor must

only be used to control the components recommended by the

manufacturer.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place.

2. Proper Use

The Rain Sensor is a measuring instrument; please handle it

with care!

The GARDENA Rain Sensor is intended for private use in domestic and

hobby gardens, exclusively for outdoor use, to control sprinklers and

watering systems by means of water computers

taking natural rainfall

into consideration.

The Rain Sensor must not be used for industrial purposes or

in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs, easily flammable

and explosive materials.

Compliance with the operating instructions provided by the manufacturer

is a prerequisite to ensure proper use of the GARDENA Rain Sensor.

The operating instructions also contain operating, servicing and mainte-

nance conditions.

1) Water Computer 1030 and 1060, 1060 U, Water Timer Electronic T 14 and T 1030,

Water Computer Plus C 1030 and Profi C 1060, GARDENA Solenoid Valve Boxes,

GARDENA Automatic Valves, GARDENA Pump Relay, GARDENA Flower Box

Watering Set, and Watertimer electronic.

3. Operating Parts (Fig. A/D/G/I)

4. How the Rain Sensor Works

The Rain Sensor detects natural precipitation as shown in Fig. B:

If it is dry (Fig. B1), a ray of light is sent from the emitting to the

receiving diode: The watering programme remains activated.

If it rains (Fig. B 2), the ray of light is diverted due water drops on the

surface of the lens: The watering programme is de-activated.

The watering is interrupted until the water drops are dried out on the

surface of the lens. The duration of the dry-out period depends on the

weather (humidity, temperature, wind, etc.). Keep the air inlets

free,

to make sure that the Rain Sensor dries out faster.

The response time of the Rain Sensor depends on the amount of

precipitation. Without the cone

, the automatic watering is interrupted

at a precipitation level of approximately 1 l/m

. If the cone was mounted,

the response time is shorter.

If the Rain Sensor dries out again, watering begins at the next pro-

grammed starting time.

Watering can be initiated manually despite registered precipitation by

using the On/Off function at the respective water controller.

5. Preparations for Use

Before using the Rain Sensor you must

1. insert the battery,

2. choose the position for the Rain Sensor and

3. set up the Rain Sensor.

5.1 Inserting the Battery (Fig. D)

Note: The battery is not included.

To achieve the maximum operating time of 1 year only a 9 V

alkaline battery type IEC 6LR61 may be used. We recommend

Varta and Energizer batteries.

1. Unscrew the lid of the battery compartment

2. Insert the battery in the housing in the correct position

Note: Pay attention to the +/– markings in the battery compartment

and on the battery.

3. Replace the lid

on the housing

5.2 Choosing the Position (Fig. E)

Position the Rain Sensor in a place which is exposed to natural rainfall.

Important! Make sure that the Rain Sensor is only exposed to natural

rainfall and that it is not in a place influenced by watering installations,

i.e. sprinklers etc.

Important! In order not to reduce its performance, the Rain Sensor

should not be installed at or near soil (danger of contamination).

5.3 Assembling/Setting up the Rain Sensor

When assembling or setting up the Rain Sensor make sure

that soil and other foreign bodies do not penetrate the lens.

This prevents the Rain Sensor working properly.

Mounting the cone (Fig. C)

To mount the cone proceed as follows:

1. Mount the cone onto the Rain Sensor according to fig. C.

2. Make sure the cone is in correct position (lugs move in guiding

grooves).

The Rain Sensor can be mounted either with the spike (Fig. F) or with

the base

Fixing the spike (Fig. F)

1. Insert the spike

from above into the opening in the base

and

screw the base/spike to the receptacle

2. Insert the spike e.g. into a flower pot filled with gravel, until it stops.

Note: Avoid fixing the Rain Sensor in soil, as soil may splash

during rain and thus reduce the performance of the Rain Sensor.

Note: Make sure that the Rain Sensor is inserted in a perpendi-

cular position (90°) (Fig. F 3).

Mounting the base

(Fig. F 4)

1. Alternatively the Rain Sensor can be screwed on a firm ground,

e.g. on the roof of the house, a stake or onto plates:

Screw the base

without the spike onto the receptacle

2. Secure the Rain Sensor using two screws e.g. on plates or similarly

firm ground.

Note: Make sure that the Rain Sensor is inserted in a perpendi-

cular position (90°).

Controlling a watering system consisting of several watering lines

by using one Rain Sensor (Fig. I)

When controlling the watering system consisting of several watering

lines, the precipitation may be controlled centrally via one Rain Sensor:

Prior to the watering lines, a central Automatic Valve

, Art. No. 1241

is installed and connected with the Rain Sensor

(see fig. I).

However, make sure, that the watering data of the respective automatic

valve responds with the data set at the central automatic valve.

Example:

The following data are set at the automatic valves:

Start-Time Duration Cycle

Valve a 18:00 h 30 minutes daily

Valve b 20:00 h 20 minutes every 2nd day

Valve c 22:00 h 1 hour every 3rd day

Valve d 24:00 h 1 hour daily

These watering data must also be set at the central automatic valve

in order to prevent watering despite rainfall.

6. Putting the Rain Sensor into Operation

Connect the Rain Sensor to a GARDENA water controller using the plug

on the accompanying cable

(see also the operating instructions for

the respective water controller).

Important: When laying the cable make sure that it is not in a place

where it could be damaged or cause you or others to trip over it.

When laying the cable underground we recommend laying the cable

e.g. in a bed of sand.

7. Maintenance, Care, Storage

7.1 Storage

The cable-plug-connection of the Rain Sensor must be disconnected

from the water controller and the Rain Sensor removed from the ground

before the frosty season begins.

Over the winter, clean and store the Rain Sensor in a dry and dust-free

place away from frost.

7.2 Cleaning (Fig. G)

To ensure that the Rain Sensor works properly, keep the lens

clean.

Clean the lens as follows:

1. Unscrew the nut

from the lens-receptacle

(Fig. G1).

2. Remove the housing

3. Clean the lens

with a clean, soft, damp cloth (Fig. G 2).

Note: If the Rain Sensor is really dirty, the inside of the lens-receptacle

should also be cleaned, e.g. with clean water (Fig. G 3). Unscrew

the lid

and remove the cone

Do not use any harsh household cleaning agents or scouring

powder!

4. Dry the lens.

Warning! Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to prevent scratching.

5. Replace the housing

on the lens-receptacle

. Secure the lens-

receptacle with the nut

by compressing the spring

(Fig. G 4).

7.3 Change the battery once a year

To ensure that the Rain Sensor works properly we recommend you ex-

change the battery at least once a year (see also “Inserting the Battery”).

8. Accessories available

If the connection cable on the Rain Sensor is not long enough, it can be

extended using the 10 m Extension Cable, GARDENA Art. No. 1186 up

to a maximum of 105 m (Fig. H).

To consider the soil moisture in addition to the natural precipitation, the

GARDENA Adaptor 1189-00.630.00 (obtainable at GARDENA Service)

may be used. Both the Rain Sensor Electronic and the Soil Moisture

Sensor may be connected to the water controller (Fig. H). This is due to

prevent the start of the watering program when the rain sensor indicates

dry but the soil moisture is sufficient.
